Please do not demoralize them. Let them be proud of their sacrifice - it is time consuming and hard work and a real pressure - especially if the wife does not know about it. Give them chizuk buddy.

Thank you. My assumption is that folks on GYE have brains and intelligence; let them figure things out with the help of others. There are all kinds of help out there, and statin' contrarian opinions are also part of that. It's important to hear both sides of the story. Why is it demoralizin'?

Cordnoy, you're making a great point. I think what HHM meant was that there's a way to calmly and clearly take the other side, as opposed to writing sarcastic comments or making fun of the system (or making fun of the poster). I feel like the first way leads to productive discussion, while sarcasm just leads to a fight. (Though to be honest, it can be quite funny.) Perhaps that's what HHM meant.

In the place where ba’alei teshuva stand, even pure tzaddikim who never sinned cannot stand. (Rabbi Avohu, Brachos 34b)
